    Quesadilla and birria tacos
    Preston P.

    The food is fantastic! I've been here plenty of times and never been disappointed. My go to is the nachos with carne asada and al pastor. The birria tacos are also a family favorite. Big enough portions for the nachos and fries to share. They even have a spot off to the side of the truck to eat inside to escape the heat. I've been lucky enough to be at a wedding catered by them. The taco bar can't be beat!

    Visited this excellent food truck today for the first time. My sons and I were hungry and we heard about Tacos Tapatio being open on Recker and Brown (the location may vary). We went and orders three burritos, two tacos, a quesadilla and a horchata. The burritos were al pastor and chock full of delicious ingredients. Authentic cured pork, cilantro, light touches of pineapple, rice and beans all included. They were juicy and excellent. The tacos were carne asada and street taco style . The quesadilla was also carne asada and very good. The horchata was fresh and homemade. The prices were reasonable and the staff was kind. The meal was prepared quickly and we decided to eat at the small set of table area they had available outside. They of course have takeout and otder ahead as well. They take cards and cash. If you get a chance to check out this great little food truck you won't be disappointed . I truly enjoyed it!

    Wow! It's nice to see a taco truck out in East Mesa! My husband and I have been keeping up with their Instagram to find out where they'll be and their menu items. We finally had the chance to try it today, and I'm so impressed! Ordered al pastor and carne Asada tacos, and a burrito. We left NO CRUMBS! Everything was so flavorful and delicious. Definitely satisfied our taco craving! Their salsas are so good and have a great amount of spice to it. Can't wait to go back and try their birria soon! 5/5 would recommend!

    The Al pastor was overcooked. Was disappointed by the lack of flavor or heat to the red salsa.

    I used to live in Phoenix, and I tried this place for the first time literally the same week I was…read moremoving to Denver. Out of all the restaurants I had before leaving Arizona, THIS ended up being one of the places I couldn't stop thinking about after I moved away. Ever since leaving, I've randomly craved these tacos constantly. I've tried other taco spots in Denver hoping something would compare, but honestly nothing really hit the same. So when I came back out to Phoenix recently to visit some friends, this was one of the first places I knew I needed to come back to because I had built it up so much in my head over time. And somehow... it was just as good again. The meat tastes incredibly fresh, flavorful, and well-seasoned, and you can literally watch them prepare everything right in front of you, which makes the whole experience even better. There's something so satisfying about seeing the tacos being made fresh instead of food just appearing from the kitchen. You can tell they care about quality and consistency. The servers were also super friendly and welcoming both times I came here, which honestly makes such a difference. Everyone had great energy, the service was quick, and the whole place just feels inviting and authentic. I honestly think the fact that I remembered this place so vividly for so long says everything. Usually when you revisit a restaurant after hyping it up in your head for years, it ends up disappointing you. But this place tasted exactly how I remembered it, fresh, flavorful, comforting, and absolutely worth the obsession. Safe to say this place is officially a mandatory stop for me anytime I'm back in Phoenix now.
